Dear Philip G,
If you live in the Austin area (TX), or know someone who does, there will be a peaceful, public act of reparation on Saturday, July 3rd at 7:30 PM for the blasphemous insults to Our Lady at the City Theater.
The peaceful protest of reparation will consist of praying the rosary and offering prayers of reparation for the blasphemous play, "The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told."
As you may know, this play offends God-fearing people in general and Catholics in particular by referring to the Blessed Virgin Mary as a lesbian.
"I wanted the G a r d e n of Eden in Central Park, and Mary as a lesbian mother, which would certainly help me comprehend immaculate conception." (The New York Times, 12/6/98)
It is also presents a homosexual version of the Bible, with scenes of "Adam and Steve" in full frontal n u d i t y.
When: Saturday, July 3rd at 7:30 PM.
Where: The City Theater
3823 Air port Blvd., Suite D
Austin, TX 78722
Why: To do reparation
INVITATION
Attendees are welcome to bring signs and/or banners as long as they fall in line with the message of the Catholic Faith. Lastly, attendees must not block traffic or impede anyone from entering/exiting any of the businesses in the area, including the t h e a t r e.
Also, please pray for the City of Austin and Travis County Texas which continue to publicly fund abortions and recently passed an ordinance that effectively harasses crisis pregnancy centers in the City of Austin.
The local faithful are hoping the new Bishop of the Austin, his Excellency Joe Vasquez will consecrate the City of Austin to The Immaculate Heart of Mary.
For additional information on the Protest of Reparation please contact Kenneth Mora:
(512) 282-8537.
Kenneth is coordinating this important public act of reparation. He is one of Our Lady’s devotees.
For the love of Our Lady, please help him in this vital spiritual crusade.
Thank you.
Sincerely in Jesus and Mary,
Robert E. Ritchie

P.S. Also, please send your instant e-protest message to the
City T h e a t r e in Austin to register your peaceful protest at a play that refers to Our Lady as a lesbian! Thank you!

Lesbian Virgin Mary to appear in Austin.
I receied this invitation from my pal at America Needs Fatima. You would think that God would be able to stand his own corner if he was upset about his teenage virgin mother being portrayed as a carpet muncher. Perhaps he could rain some hellfire on the theatre or smite the director but no, he does nothing while mere mortals take offence and do protest too much. wish I could be there but it's a long way to go.

Conversation with a believer
Hey Philip G, thanks for taking the time to drop by in such a small humble blog to comment. Appreciate you and your comments. Keep them coming.
There is always this debate to ask the people of any faith to show proof of the existence of “their” God. It is always based on evidence, “show me then I will believe”. Of course, it makes so much sense to do that.
Let me go on…
The question is how can faith be a real experience and not just a figment of imagination?
Through our lives, day in and day out, even the most mundane of things. It’s just not all about preaching, evangelism party to “convert” people, or bible studies. It is also about lending a listening ear to a friend to show concern, being with a person who has just lost his loved one’s, in other words, showing love in the most tangible of ways, not just through words, but through mouth.
You need a god to be considerate to others?
The faith must be experienced through our hearts, not through the logics in our minds.
Faith and logic are not good bedfellows.
So, with this common question, “show me a proof of your God” can be easily answered with a question in return, “show me a proof He doesn’t exist?”
I don’t have to prove a negative. Do I need to prove that the Earth is not flat, that fairies don’t live at the bottom of the garden, that Allah is not the one true god?
The debate of logics and philosophy can go on and on, but the end of day, how do we live our lives, are we missing something in our lives, how’s your relationship with your family members, those kind of questions which is far more important.
My relationship with my family members is pretty rubbish at the moment. Are you saying it would be better if I believed in your god?
If you can live life to the fullest without God, why not? That is your personal choice. There is no criticism on that and trying to ‘coax’ you to believe something that u are missing something.
It’s a personal thing. Faith is personal. And, you can never take away the personal experience from anyone else no matter how ridiculous it may sound to the skeptics. It’s personal. Period.
Personal experience can be imagined. Anyone who believes in an invisible magic friend is deluded. God rarely seems to talk to groups of people or do anything to prove his existence. What would be different if he vanished?
But, through the lives of Christians who are imperfect in every way, we can honestly tell you, there is so much more to life when God is in the picture, in the center of our lives, so much more.
You would say that. “Imperfect in every way”. Strange choice of words. Is your god perfect? I think not. He is a lesser god in my book for all sorts of reasons. Visit my blog to read more on this.
Accepting Jesus is a personal choice. Believing Him is a personal choice. We are not going to even try to debate with you or for that matter, anyone else, about the existence of God, of why bad things happened if there is a God, because it is kinda pointless.
Indeed. Bad things happen because bad things happen. There is no meaning or ‘fate’.
Let’s say you win the debate. It still would not change the way we live our lives where we know and believe that we are meant to live with God in our lives, where we find purpose and meaning, not just for the sake of going heaven u know.
Heaven is the last place I would want to go. Do you understand the concept of eternity?
Le’s say we (Christian) win the debate. It still would not change the way you live your life or change your perception because in your heart you already make up your mind to not believe anyway.
I take drugs, drink too much, swear, covet my neighbour’s ox, support my local community, do voluntary work and try to ‘put something back’. And I’m a heathen!
There is no reason to justify our faith.
We show it. As imperfect as we are in showing it, we are trying by the grace of God, really.
What’s with the ‘perfection’ thing? Strive to get most things right most of the time, not to hurt people unnecessarily and to leave the world a slightly better place for you having walked on it. We are here but for the blink of an eye and when we are dead, we are gone for eternity.
We don’t know everything. That is why, we need God all the more.
We know much more than we did and we need god much less to explain the unknown.
There is very little that science cannot explain. God has been reduced to the ‘creator of the cosmos’ and the ‘breather of life’. He used to be do much more. Religion is dying. There are thousands of gods that were once worshipped with rivers of human blood and are now worshipped by no-one.

Jesus will save you - not.
If someone was brought up in a controlled environment where information was filtered and they were given zero information about god, what would their belief/value system become?
Does god have a way of communicating with people or has he devolved the spiritual continuence on the parents of the child to bring said child up in said faith?
I wonder how many children who are brought up in faith A, sudenly denounce it and adopt faith B? The lack of wholescale movement to the 'one true god' suggests to me that god has no active involvement in which faith children are brought up in. This becomes an issue whern we consider that children could burn in hell for eternity if they do not accept jesus. Why is god so devolved from the process?
Jesus could have a little chat with every child when they get to 5. He could introduce himself and explain about sin, redemtion and eternal life. Instead, he leaves this to mere mortals, many of whom dress up in sily costumes and insist that their congregation eat crackers and drink wine, not a child friendly activity.
The christian faith is dying. The Anglican church is mortally wounded by the inclusion of women and the pope is nothing more than a pimp. Does anyone still beileve in the salvation of jesus?

Does God exist?
Someone asked on my local forum, "Does God exist and if so, where is the proof? This was my response. View the thread here.
One only has to look at all the beautiful plants and trees to know that this couldn't have just happened. It needed intelligent design. What about an eye? How could that have just appeared? If a tornado hit a car breakers, it wouldn't leave an E Type in its wake.
However the designer was a bit naff. Putting sex organs next to the sewage system and indeed having them operate as both is novel but not the best design option. I know the childbitrth thing weas a curse from god but really - A hinged door over the stomach opened by a code provided by god on 9 months would be better and would save a fortune in healthcare.
Why not have parents needing to spend a year in close proximity before the female could get pregnant? That would solve a lot of social problems. Bones break too easily. A good god would have thought of this before the seventh day or would have fixed it after. If humans were bendy and could bounce from great heights, there would be a lot less to go wrong. Needing blood to carry oxygen round the body is a bit of a no-brainer. Fine until someone gets accidentally opened up or those white cells get a mind of their own.
I suppose god was a bit limited because he had to make us in his own image for some reason but hey, got to give the guy a 6 out of 10 for effort.

The bible is the word of ..... desert dwelling fools.
The bible is a load of drivel. Ray Mears Survival Guide or Animal Husbandry by Jethro Tull would have served people better. Where is the wisdom of god in the bible? He is all powerful and it just talks about boat building and who begat who. Is that all he wanted people to know? Where is he now when things are really hotting up? He could sort out the BP oil leak without even breaking wind but he does nothing. Why, because he is a figment of your imagination you dumb twat.
I posted this on someone's blog and must learn how to calm down. The more I look at religion and the peple who buy into it, the more scared I become.

God likes Black Holes.
I had never heard of Richard Carrier before but I'm pleased I came across him.
